The iconic villain Springtrap from Five Nights at Freddy's has officially entered the world of Dead by Daylight, marking an exciting crossover for horror game enthusiasts. Players can now take control of "The Yellow Rabbit" as a formidable killer in Behaviour Interactive's popular asymmetrical horror title.

Originally released in 2016, Dead by Daylight has captivated players with its intense 1v4 multiplayer gameplay. One player assumes the role of a terrifying killer while four others attempt to survive the night. The game continues to expand its roster with legendary horror icons, and Springtrap's addition brings fresh terror to the experience.

The collaboration between Dead by Daylight and Five Nights at Freddy's was first announced in May, alongside news of another crossover with The Witcher series. Five Nights at Freddy's, created by Scott Cawthon, began as a simple survival horror game where players worked as a night guard in Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, fending off murderous animatronics. The franchise has since grown into a multimedia phenomenon with sequels, novels, and even a feature film.

Behaviour Interactive confirmed via Twitter that Springtrap is now available as a playable killer in Dead by Daylight. The animatronic horror comes equipped with unique abilities including projectile attacks and the Phantom Fear perk, offering players new strategic options. The chapter also introduces themed cosmetics like the Stack of Pizzas badge and Vent Crawl banner.

Springtrap's special power, Fazbear's Fright, has generated significant excitement among fans of both franchises. Players have flooded social media with praise for the crossover, with many calling the addition "absolute cinema" in response to the thrilling reveal trailers.

In addition to the Five Nights at Freddy's content, rumors suggest Dead by Daylight may soon feature another major horror crossover. Leaks point to a potential Resident Evil collaboration in November, reportedly featuring Jack Baker as a killer and Ethan and Rosemary Winters as survivors from Resident Evil 7 and 8.
